Abstract:
La presente invención describe una novedosa metodología de funcionalización de proteínas mediante la incorporación de un fragmento metálico de Renio con alto rendimiento, dando lugar a iminopiridinas coordinadas que poseen tres grupos carbonilo en posición fac - que ofrecen bandas procedentes de la tensión del enlace CO en el espectro de infrarrojo (IR) en una zona donde las proteínas no muestran señal alguna, lo que permite una aplicación muy interesante desde el punto de vista de detección de moléculas de interés biológico.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a modular transport platform (MTP) for delivering active, diagnostic or research substances to predesigned intracellular compartments of target cells. The MTP includes functional modules within one molecule to accomplish one or more of the following: penetration of the modular transport platform into a target cell type, pH-dependent membrane disruption activity within the target cell, directed intracellular transport into preselected intracellular compartment, and delivery of a substance to be transported to the intracellular compartment. The modular transport platform includes the following modules: (1) a ligand module to target a specific receptor on the surface of the target cell; (2) an endosomolytic module that provides pH-dependent membrane disruption activity within the target cell; (3) an intracellular transport module to cause delivery of the MTP to a particular subcellular compartment; (4) a module for intracellular retention to ensure retention of the MTP within the subcellular compartment of the target cell; (5) a module for subcellular recognition; (6) a substance to be transported by the MTP; and (7) a carrier module for unifying the modules and coupling the modules with the transported substance.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a sentinel lymph node marker comprising albumin to which a radioactive isotope, one or more dyes selected from near-infrared ray absorbing dyes, and a visible ray absorbing dye are coupled, a preparation method thereof, a kit for preparing the same for multi-mode imaging the sentinel lymph node, and a multi-mode imaging method of the sentinel lymph node using the same. The sentinel lymph node marker of the present invention has a long retention time at a lymph node and enables multi-mode imaging, and thus it is possible to precisely check the sentinel lymph node without a skin incision by ex vivo imaging through a near-infrared image and/or gamma ray image, and it is possible to precisely check the location of the sentinel lymph node with the naked eye when used in conjunction with surgery for removing the checked sentinel lymph node.
